Can you use a debit card to buy MS points over Live?

I know it says you can use a credit card, but I was wondering if anyone knows if I can use my Visa Debit? I currently have 640 points and want to buy Perfect Dark XBLA for 800points this week, and I sure as hell don't want to go buy a 1600point $20 card when all I want is 160points so I can buy the HD remake of the greatest FPS of all time, so I plan on buying the fewest amount of points over Live which is 500. I'm not going to be able to try using my Debit over Live until tomorrow to see it if works, I'm wondering if anyone knows beforehand if I'm able to purchase it at all or if it's strictly credit cards only.

Yeah a debit card works fine i use my debit card to purchase points on xbl myself :) hope this helps( o and btw pdz is going to be amazing)

OMG is this true? for the longest time i assumed you couldnt use debit. Are you guys sure?

i just tried on debit and it wont let me use it.

Microsoft will take money from anything, yes you can use your debit card.TrapMuzik92

I would think your debit card should be a major credit card too. Debit but can also be used as credit. So it will say VISA or MasterCard on it. An atm card or bank card will probably not work though because its only for use at that bank and it's own atms.
